Dave you deserve a medal, and if Neil was around I'm sure he would Conjure you up a virtual one.

Its a shame there isn't anyone who could lighten the load and help you with the forums technical issue's

Mostly for rewriting the new site
http://typo.nakeddiscovery.com/HTML/
Which is taking longer than I had hoped, but is probably a load more complex than I had thought. It is getting there and will definitely go live by the end of Feb.
oh and doing radio stuff.

  Well Good morning to you Dave and I am going to try to sleep for  a while.. I have not seen any problems yet tonight! I did sign in earlier after watching for awhile, and I was in the general topics area and when I put in my password etc. it signed me on but switched me into the admin forum.. I was a bit confused, but it had signed me in just differently tonight.. LOL Signed in on topic board but landed in administration.. Was a bit odd.

That's very cool. You have done an excellent job.. we all appreciate it! Thank you!

It keeps me in power tools, if finding a place to put them is more challenging.

At the moment I do have most of a garage, due to luckly finding a room in shared house with an attached garage that was full of junk that my landlord was happy for me to throw away. However now I am looking for a house to rent for next year with some friends, and finding one with a decent sized dry garage is not trivial in Cambridge.

LOL you are a jack of all trades.. Very cool!! I am like that myself although I must say I have had very little experience with metals, some aluminum and very little else. My husband likes to fiddle with copper piping.. He is fascinated by its potential as far as ornamental gates etc. More decorative purposes..I have a good variety of wood working tools etc. I like dabbling with things of more in the lines of construction..etc. I am kind of a do it yourselfer, only if I can do it well though. I dabble until I get the basic skill down and then I try to move on unless I am totally fascinated by it.. Then I linger... LOL
